Description
Best Friends was painted after an award winning photograph of my cat and my dog (best friends in real life). The painting is a digital painting by hand, using computer art software with various digital brushes.
This painting is full of textures. Digital art can be enlarged without loss of quality. This provides for great printing quality on any surface and all textures are seen but not felt!

Our beautiful pets have big hearts. I lost a dear friend a while back and his dog stopped eating, constantly looked for him, and in a few weeks died of a broken heart.
Angela Stanton replied:
Thanks Jerry! I very much agree. I have seen and heard of several cases by now and now there is also scientific evidence. As a scientist I was happy to learn that when a pet looks at you, they actually release the hormone of love. :)

Angela, I love the image and the story. We sometimes take for granted the bond the animals can have for others. A dear friend of mine passed away and his little dog got so depressed that she died a few weeks later! Anyway, a touching image! JERRY

I totally agree Jerry! When my dog passed away, the cat went through the most amazing pain! She was gone for an entire week and came back in like a totally heart broken cat with furn in complete disarray, searching for her friend for weeks! I took a toy out just last week that my dog played with last and my cat would not touch it. Sniffed and lay down next to it. They have amazing emotions!
